Native Settlers (Wattys 2016)

Chapter 6

Zayn ended up getting an interview at Hollister at the LLoyd Center Mall within a few days of staying here which was good because it was Tuesday and we had a little less of a week of spring break.

Sharon and Harry were sat on the couch with Zayn trying to gather a decent resume for Zayn to give in his interview which consisted of Sharon suggesting to put some good deed bullshit but Harry interjecting telling her that lying was wrong. 

I had just walked in the house from my shift working at Fred Meyer's in the electronics section with my car keys in hand exhausted from the busy day at work.

"Sharon?" I called out to her plopping down on the couch.

"Yes?"

"Is there any good parties coming up?" I was starting to get tired of getting drunk at the bar, no offense to Mitchie but the guy was monotone and could get boring to talk to.

"Not really, besides just because it's spring break doesn't mean we get a break from work." I groaned rubbing my eyes under my glasses and played with a strand of my black hair bored.

"When do you guys have a day off?"

"Well," Harry said and Sharon fixed the puffy bun on her head. "I can get a day off any day this week because I did prep everyday last week."

"Where do you work Harry?" Zayn piped in.

"Subway."

"Our Harry here can work a bun ain't that right boo," Sharon said laughing next to him. Harry rolled his eyes with a ghost of a smile on his lips.

"How bout you Sharon?" I asked now spread out over Harry and Sharon, Zayn got up and went to sit on the chair still going over his resume.

"I have Wednesday and Friday off," Sharon answered

"I have tomorrow off we should go out and do something," I suggested. I was tired of not being able to go out and do things like I used to in high school.

"With what money?" Harry spoke up next to me, "What would we do? Keeza if you haven't noticed we don't exactly have the most money right now."

"Let's go to seaside, nothing to long just a day trip and we can swim in the freezing water or hey we can go to Astoria and visit all the places the goonies was filmed I don't know anything." I said rambling out of breath.

"That's kind of last minute don't you think?" Zayn said looking up from Harry's laptop the light illuminated his face, he had a pretty boy face.

"Off topic but Zayn you have such a nice jawline, shit dude." I said pausing to get up and take a closer look. "Maybe I didn't notice before because you were an ass but you are a looker."

Zayn got a bit uncomfortable and tried to distance himself a bit from me which made me laugh.

"Sorry about her she doesn't have much of a filter." Harry said grabbing the back of my shirt pulling me down to the couch and away from Zayn's sharp jawline.

"Oh! let's go to sauvie." I suggested with wide eyes.

"Oh no." Sharon said and Harry sighed rubbing his temples.

"What's sauvie?" Zayn asked with a confused look on his face, I smirked and raised an eyebrow.

"It's a clothing optional beach about 45 minutes away from here," he looked horrified and I laughed some more.

"Absolutely not." Harry said sternly as if he had a choice 

"It might be fun?" Sharon suggested and I nodded.
